Controls

With the bass held in the playing position, there are three small knobs located towards the lower edge of the body.

Directionally, from the lower bout towards the neck these knobs control treble boost/cut, mid boost/cut, and bass boost/cut knob.

Above these are two larger knobs closer to the bridge.

Of these, the knob closest to the end of the body is the pickup balance, and the knob located towards the neck is the volume knob.

There are two switches on this bass.

The switch closest to the lower edge of the body is a 3-way mid frequency switch.

When the switch is in neck position, mid boost peak is at 250Hz.

When the switch is in center position, mid boost peak is at 450Hz.

When the switch is in bridge position, mid boost peak is at 700Hz.

The other switch closer to the middle of the bass is the EQ bypass switch.

When the switch is in neck position, the EQ is off.

When the switch is in bridge position, EQ is on.

When EQ is off, the treble knob works as a passive tone control knob.
